Disney4me Posted 18 hours ago Report Posted 18 hours ago Uhm, Disney? Did you mean to take away one of our favorite hidden discounts? Bottled sodas are pricey in Disney World Disney World is expensive; there’s no way around that, but there are some ways to save some money. One way is to use discounts, especially if you’re an Annual Passholder or Disney Vacation Club Member. We used to use a merchandise discount to grab drinks, but Cast Members have confirmed it’s gone! Previously, we bought our soda and water bottles in gift shops, since Annual Passholders receive a 20% discount inside merchandise stores, as it’s technically a “merchandise discount.” This discount didn’t work at snack carts or restaurants since it was classified as food, even though it’s the same product. Popcorn and water at EPCOT After Hours With the hundreds of price increases that recently hit Disney World, they removed this discount. Ah! So we not only lost the 20% discount, but prices across Disney World also went up. Well, that doesn’t feel so magical. Discounts on bottled drinks were removed for Annual Passholders, Disney Vacation Club Members, Disney Visa Cardmembers, and Cast Members, so it was a big hit. Free snacks and bottled drinks at After Hours! What’s the best way to get around this? You might be stuck buying full-priced water and soda bottles, but you can also grab lots of free water around the parks. Most quick-service restaurants have cups and water, so you can fill your own. Keep an eye out for free water Kids meals usually come with a drink, too, so if you just need a little pick-me-up, that can be a great way to grab some soda.
